Disclaimer: This story would probably have been in the Harry Potter series if I owed Harry Potter. Also, Lucius Malfoy and Dolores Umbridge would have died if I owned Harry Potter. Therefore, I don't.
James's POV
I think that Lily has been spending too much time at Uncle George's shop. Or with me. Or with Fred (the second). Whatever. My point is, she is supposed to me my cute little sister who wouldn't hurt a fly. Instead, she's a devious, clever, manipulative, little prankster. Why, if I didn't know better, I'd say that she's better than me! And that's just not how the world is supposed to be. She's supposed to be more like Al (only cooler), not me! It just isn't right!
For example, she gets people to do her dirty work for them while she tells them that she's helping them when really, Al and I (I mean "they") were helping her! She has Mum and Dad thinking that she's just cute little Lily who wishes that she could be cool like her big brothers. Mum had to grow up with six brothers so she is trying to make things less hard for Lily than they were for her. Dad, well, Dad will practically let you get away with murder (not really, since it's his job to catch murders, but that's not the point). I remember that one time when were younger we had a competition to see who could build the largest snow fort just before Christmas.
I was ten at the time. Even then, Lily was a devious little mini-me. It was a couple of days before Christmas and Mum refused to let us open any presents early. Dad suggested that we go out and play in the snow. After making snow angels for a while, Al and I decided to have a competition to see who could make the biggest snow fort. Lily tried to make her own fort, but she couldn't carry enough snow at once (she was only six) so she wasn't making much progress. After a while, she went inside to get some hot chocolate. After a while, she came back out and sat down behind her fort smiling. Suddenly, I heard her voice next to mine.
"James, it's me. I'm under the cloak," she whispered.
"Don't do that, Lily," I hissed back.
"I was thinking, what's the point of a fort if you aren't blocking it from anything? Well, you make some snowballs and through them at Al since he won't be expecting it! Oh, and you should really make your fort stronger on that side," her gloved hand appeared out of thin air and it pointed to the side of my fort that was closer to Al's. "That way, if he tries to fight back, you'll be protected," her face suddenly lit up (she'd taken the cloak off her head when she pointed to my fort). "James, we should attack Al at the same time! That way, he won't be able to defend himself properly. Could I have some more snow to make snowballs? You and Al took most of the snow," she said sweetly.
"Yeah, sure," I said pulling some snow off of the part of the fort that was facing hers.
"Thank you!" she and the snow disappeared under the cloak.
After a few moments of strengthening the side of my fort that faced Al's and making snowballs, I heard Lily shout, "NOW!"
I threw snowballs at Al who threw some back at me and Lily threw them at, the both of us! While we were attacking each other, she was destroying the both of us! Divide and conquer I suppose. What's worse, we had both strengthened the sides of our forts that were facing each other leaving the side that faced hers unprotected. That day, I learned that even though she looks cute and sweet, Lily Potter shouldn't be trusted.
